AI-Powered Detection
Find sensitive data before it finds you
RedactLaw automatically identifies PII, HIPAA identifiers, and other sensitive information across your documents. Context-aware detection understands that “Dr. Smith” in a medical record is different from “Smith & Associates” in a firm name, so you only redact what actually needs redacting.
- Auto-detection of SSNs, DOBs, addresses, and phone numbers
- HIPAA-specific identifiers including MRNs and insurance IDs
- Context-aware entity recognition reduces false positives
- Confidence scoring so you can review uncertain matches first
\b\d3-\d2-\d4\bActiveCustom Redaction Rules
Redact exactly what your case demands
Every case is different. Define your own rules to target specific names, terms, phrases, or patterns across an entire document set. Save rules as reusable presets so your team stays consistent from one production to the next.
- Target specific names, party identifiers, or code words
- Use regex patterns for account numbers and custom formats
- Save and share rule sets across your team
- Combine custom rules with AI detection in a single pass
Batch Redaction
Redact hundreds of documents in one run
Upload an entire production set and apply your rules across every document at once. No more opening files one by one.
Consistent Rules
Apply the same detection and custom rules uniformly, so nothing slips through the cracks across thousands of pages.
Bulk Review
Review flagged items across all documents in a single queue. Approve or reject in bulk and move on.
Production-Ready Output
Download redacted files as court-ready PDFs with permanent redactions already applied. No extra steps.
OCR for Scanned Documents
Scanned pages are not a problem
RedactLaw uses built-in OCR to extract text from scanned PDFs and images, then runs the same AI detection and custom rules on the recognized content. No need for a separate OCR tool or manual transcription.
- Supports scanned PDFs, JPEG, PNG, and TIFF
- High-accuracy text recognition even on low-quality scans
- Redactions are applied directly to the image layer
- Original scan quality is preserved in the output file
Permanent Redaction
Redactions that actually redact
Most tools draw a black box over text and call it done. The text is still in the file. RedactLaw permanently removes the underlying data so it cannot be recovered — ever.
| Capability | Other Tools | RedactLaw |
|---|---|---|
| Text removal method | Black box overlay (text remains in file) | Permanent deletion from file stream |
| Copy-paste protection | No — hidden text can be selected | Yes — underlying data is destroyed |
| Metadata scrubbing | Rarely included | Automatic metadata and hidden-layer removal |
| Court acceptance | Risk of challenge if text is recoverable | Production-ready permanent redaction |
| Manafort-style exploit | Vulnerable | Not possible — data no longer exists in the file |
Audit Trail
Every decision, documented
RedactLaw logs every redaction decision — who approved it, when, and why. Generate exportable audit reports in PDF or CSV for your files, opposing counsel, or the court.
- Timestamped log of every approve, reject, and edit action
- User attribution for team accountability
- Exportable audit reports in PDF and CSV
- Defensible record for court or regulatory review
